WET SNOW WOULD
DO MUCH DAMAGE
Since the bjg fall of snow Friday
evening and Saturday morning little
snow has fallen at Oregon, and little
has melted, the thermometer hover
ing near the freezing point The in
dications Monday morning pointed
toward more snow Should a dry
snow fall little damage- would be
done, but if a wet snow should come
many trees and awnings not yet
cleaned off would go down. Small
boys are making the moBt of the un
usual condition and scarcely a hill in
the town has not had a crowd of boys
sliding down it Due to the heavier
fall in tne country many farmers
have not been able to reach town
with their produce. The Oregon City
street cars are' running on time and
business has adjusted itself . to
the snow in town.

WARNING ISSUED BY
HUMANE SOCIETY
The humane Society has done a
great work during the cold weather.
Many complaints of stock running
loose have been received, and, in ev
ery instance the owners have been
notified that they must house the
stock and provide proper feed. Miss
Anita McCarver, president of the so
ciety, said Monday evening that thj
members had been feeding the birds
and doing everything in their power
to see that all animals suffered a3
little as possible from the cold. While
loathe to do it, the members of
the society wish it distinctly under
stood that persons who allow stock
to run loose, during the cold weather
will be punished to the full extent of
the law. .
'TURKEY TROT' BARRED,
' AT INAUGURAL BALL
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. In case
an inaugural ball is held in spite of
President-elect Wilson's objections,
the Turkey trot, grizzly bear and
other "rags" will be positively bar
red. Vice-Chairman Hamilton of the in
augural committee, accepted a pro
viso to this effect proposed by Rep
resentative Roddenberry, of Georgia,
when before - the house public build
ings committee today..
The congressman proposed this
limitation on the measure to permit
use of the pension office building .for
the ball which Hamilton said he
would accept. , The grant of the per
mit for the use of the pension build
ing is expressly on the condition that
for the prevention of a class of pub
lic decency, the following so-called
dances are absolutely prohibited:
"Grizzy bear," "bunny hug," "tender
loin movements", the "Turkey trot,"
contortions and like vulgarisms of
of the hoochee-koochee dance and
all similar forms of" gymnastic con
vulsive movements suggestive of the
degenerate reveries of the segregated
districts The sergeant-at-arms of the
senate and house are charged with
enforcing this action and are hereby
given plenary powers : . ? ." ; ; !
"That would have to be substan
tially enforced, anyway," said Hamil
ton. "It is acceptable to the commit
tee." -
When Roddenberry -was jokingly
asked how he knew of such dances,
the Georgian remarked:
"You evidently haven't been pres
ent at. divers and sundry functions of
recent date?"
After accepting Rodderberry's res
olution, the public buildings commit
tee postponed until next Tuesday fin
al acception of the bill.
- Vice-Chairman Hamilton told the
committee that Governor Wilson s
letters requesting that the ball be
abolished had ; not been received and
asked for time- to decide on the ques-ident-elect's
request. t
Secretary of the Interior Fisber
told the committee that he objected
to the use of the pensions building
for the ball because it would threw
1700 clerks out of work for a week
at a cost to the government of $",
700 a day.
It answers the puzzling question, of "What
will I get her"

EIGHT AGAINST 8
HOUR BILL STARTS
(Continued from page 1)
bills alread) Introduced. The mem
bers are being lined up to make a
determined showing as to regulation
of fishing in the Willamette River at
Oregon City. Senator Dimick took
into conference today Farrell, of Mult
nomah, and a number of other sena
tors in regard to the fight against
promiscuous salmon fishing at- Ore
gon City. It was stated ai the con
ference that loads of salmon are tak
en from the river iiid hauled throngn
the streets, for sale. Senator Dimick
intends to push the question regard
less, of objections that may be made
by the state fish and game commis
sion. An important, development is ex-,
pected tomorrow in the shape of a
resolution to put before the people
a constitutional amendment to repeal
the home rule amendment passed in
1910- by the people It will be' intro
duced by Bean and Balkins of Lane,
and probobly will develop one of the
strongest opposition movements of
the sessiou, according to present indi
cations. The promoters of the amend
ment state their idea is to give wom
en a chance to vote -on questions
they having been deprived of such
opportunity when the amendment or
iginally came before the people.
Representative Schuebel will intro
duce two important bills tomorrow.
One will be at the request of Govern
or West, and provides a uniform rate
of salaries of county officers. The
other bill would place road districts
under the same plan as school dis
tricts, making them corporations with
similar administrations that are now
enjoyed by school districts.
